Two sounds are basically guaranteed to truly annoy me. One of them is when someone says lol out loud in conversation. The other is about 99% of the new age music I've ever heard.
Nevertheless... ^ The vocals from these guys grate like nails on a chalkboard for me. When they just serve straight-up instrumentals like this though, they Ashram here always manage to pull off a really haunting, beautiful vibe majestically. ^ I just love these guys as well. Far from traditional new age, but the way this sound's all mixed up with flamenco and salsa really gets me every time. |

Yes, that`s what I figured ! I like it too. In fact I just replayed it for the first time in ages to check my favourite track: number 7, Pastorale, is really exquisite.
I`m glad that Janszoon mentioned William Ackerman, whose style and record label are the twin signposts that ushered in New Age music, as far as I know,in the late '70's. And while we were waiting for that to happen, what was there to listen to ? Well, John Fahey had a few kind of proto-New Age albums, like this one : ‪John Fahey - The Waltz That Carried Us Away And Then A Mosquito Came And Ate Up My Sweetheart (1971)‬‏ - YouTube Other New Age pioneers included Vangelis, Eno and Tangerine Dream, though I`m sure I`m missing lots of others too. For instance, Steve Hillage, whose album Rainbow Dome Musick was the first album I bought with an unmistakably New Age title. |
